Question

Two forces of magnitude P & $\sqrt{3}$ P act at right angles to each other Their resultant makes an angle $\theta$ with P. Which of the following gives the correct value of $\theta$?

• A. ${30}^o$
• B. ${45}^o$
• C. ${60}^o$
• D. none of these

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

${60}^o$

$tan\theta =\sqrt{3}$

Hence $\theta ={60}^{\circ }$

Hence (C)option is correct
